When Larry was interrogated by a Turkish officer, he claimed he was Circassian of whom there were a lot in Turkey and many were blonde, so it was credible.

That was not the droid they were looking for.

That's Pinkerton, Lincoln, McClernand (I believe) and brevet Major R2D2.

Lawrence of Arabia was English, AFAIK. But let's not distract him from posting more of those pictures.

He certainly was, but pretended to be Circassian and survived (after being sexually assaulted) because the Turk (played by Jose Ferrer) bought it.

The punishment for trying to have sex with a sheep was less than the punishment for stealing a sheep. Which is how that developed.
